hist-brewing: Mead fix

[DEPiLLsb42 at aol.com]

Greetings all,
  Four months ago I started a five-gallon batch of orange mead (20 lbs orange 
blossom honey, 5 gallons water, 10 oranges, lightly simmered, strained and 
bottled with champagne yeast). When I checked it a few days ago, it was 
bone-dry with a strange ale-like taste. Any idea on how to make it taste and 
feel more like mead?

Many thanks,
Dawn
